Background: The radiation emitted from electromagnetic fields (EMF) can cause biological effects on prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, including non-thermal effects. Objective: The present study evaluated the non-thermal effects of wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) operating at 2.4 GHz part of non-ionizing EMF on different pathogenic bacterial strains (Escherichia coli 0157H7, Staphylococcus aureu...

In order to study Staphylococcus epidermis and Staphylococcus aureus in vitro viability after the exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light and riboflavin, twelve strains of Staphylococcus epidermis and twelve strains of Staphylococcus aureus were isolated from patients with bacterial keratitis. The growth situation of Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus aureus under different experimental c...

Bacteria can either exist in the planktonic (free floating) state or in the biofilm (encased within an organic framework) state. Bacteria biofilms cause industrial concerns and medical complications and there has been a great deal of interest in the discovery of small molecule agents that can inhibit the formation of biofilms or disperse existing structures. Herein we show that, contrary to pre...

the antimicrobial activity of methanolic extracts from different parts of 11 indigenous wild plantspecies used in traditional medicines of iran were tested against nine species of microorganisms: escherichiacoli, staphylococcus aureus, staphylococcus epidermis, pseudomonas aeruginosa, klebsiella pneumoniae,salmonella typhi, bacillus subtilis, aspergillus niger and candida albicans. the antimicr...

Background: The body's normal flora is a form of the defense against initial infection, namely attachment and multiplication pathogenic bacteria. This research aims to examine antagonistic in human palm Staphylococcus aureus epidermis. Methods: consisted two steps. Step I. Isolation bacteria on palms II Antagonistic test between isolates epidermis which carried out separately using disc diffusi...

Indigo naturalis is effective in treating nail psoriasis coexisting with microorganism infections. This study examines the antimicrobial effects of indigo naturalis prepared from Strobilanthes formosanus Moore. Eight bacterial and seven fungal strains were assayed using the agar diffusion method to examine the effects of indigo naturalis and its bioactive compounds. The bioactive compounds of i...
